Immaculate property, excellent value

Our second visit. Little has changed. Charming hotel. As clean as an operating theatre. Nice, large rooms, all with excellent views. Staff exceptional. Only negative. Can be affected by loud music from nearby club/ restaurant from 9pmto 2am. Will affected light sleepers. Hotel cannot improve this as outside their control.

Gem of a Hotel !

Great small hotel. Excellent sincere service. Fabulous views from the room balcony over the bay with iconic moored fishing boats. Good location for bars and restaurants along the Gap. Real value for money. Others comments about noise at night must be from very light sleepers
